@arunpatidar Done! Still getting java.lang.NullPointerException... is there any other modification needed?

You should use the PageManager API for this task, see [1].

 

It could look like this:

Page pageToMove = ...
String targetPath = ...
String[] references = ...
PageManager = pageToMove.adaptTo(PageManager.class);
PageManager.move (pageToMove.adaptTo(Resource.class),  targetPath, false, true, references);

You should not use the lowlevel of Sling and JCR for that task, because they cannot handle aspects like the MSM and many other specialities.

Another important aspect I left out is the question if references to this page must be adjusted, too. To help you in that task, please consult [2].

                    Page pageToMove = hit.getResource().adaptTo(Page.class);
                    String pagename= pageToMove.getPath().substring(pageToMove.getPath().lastIndexOf("/"));
                    String targetPath = "/content/.../Articles/Archived"+pagename;
                    String[] references = {"jcr:content", "jcr:content/root"};

      You must have the path created till/content/.../Articles/Archived and trying to remove page name from target path. e.g.

       String targetPath = "/content/.../Articles/Archived
